Gone to Rest.

By the death of John Warren the
Minneapolis Typographical Union loses
consistent and honorable member,
and companion whose mildness of
disposition and unobtrusiveness' en-
deared him to evey member of that Or
ganization. His demise, which took
place on the evening of Monday last,
appeared to be in keeping with his life.
His last moments were so peaceful that
it was scarcely perceptible when the
spirit forsook the body, and winged it's
way to the regions beyond the grave.
The deceased, who was born in Maine,
arrived in Minneapolis something over
two years ago, hoping that climatic in
huences would improve his physical
condition, he being victim to that in
sidious disease, consumption. but the
disease had made to much Roadway.
In company with his sister, who re-
NAMED with him throughout his trying
illness, he went south and spent the
winter of 1856 in Dallas, Tex. He
returned to this city about year ago,
and remained here up till the time of
his death. To know John Warren was
to esteem him, and his death was deep
" regretted by all who knew HIM. He
was only Is years of age. His body
was sent to his former. home in Calais,
Me-, for interment.

responsibility, accompanied with good
taste and judgment, the work Of clean

Everything has undergone a complete
change, which reflects great praise and
credit on the kind and benevolent pas

the expenses incurred, April rs, to be

A Coffin Story From Boston.

A year ago last April &. firm OF man.
uiacturing undertakers in this vicinity
were given the most extraordinary
commission which they had ever re-
ceived. They were told to make two
mahogany caskets OF a particular de-
sign, to be above the usual size. and
in many parts fully six inches in thick
ness. They we're cautioned not to
say q word to any one about what
they were doing. The caskets were
made az ordered. 1t required $500
worth OF mahogany to complete them;
When they were ready to be shipped
from the factory a photograph was
taken, and an linking OF the affair
got out in this way. They were taken
from the factory in two two horse
wagons, each one making a heavy
load for q pair of horses to draw.
Outside cases of the same material
were also provided. The owner ofthe
caskets had them taken to his estate
and placed in a building which he had
erected on purpose. In that building
two of the best wood carvers to
be obtained have worked on the cask-
cts steadily for the past Ia months,
add they have noMhere near finished
the first one. They were carving into
the mahogany the most wonderful
and intricate designs which you could
imagine, all from sketches furnished
by eminent artists. There is a spider
in the centre OF a web, so delicate
that ones breath would almost seem
to move it; skulls, from which liie-like
serpants are crawling; owls, hour
| glasses and o hundred other things
| with symbolic meanings. At the rate
the carvers are progressing it will take
several years TO finish their work. ]
should think $4,000 would be a low
| figure for both caskets. The insides
will contain silken ~hammocks, in
which the bodies will lie. The gentle.
man who is having the caskets made
has purchaced an entire knoll in one
OF the most beautiful OF our Gene
teries, and, it is said, will spend 1928,
900 on the tomb. He is q gentleman
connected with the medicalprofession
having all office in Boston. His wife
who takes, if possible, more Interest
in the caskets then himself, is said te
be the granddaughter OF a baron
